Parent Verdict

Stunning animation over heavy material: on-screen deaths including children, a sister's psychological breakdown, the drug 'shimmer' as a plot engine, and a brief intimate scene in season two. Emotionally intense more than gory. Best for 14 and up; being animated does not make it a kids' show.
